Portmagee

Portmagee is a scenic village along the western reaches of the Ring of Kerry. The harbour is the primary embarkation point for a visit to Skellig Michael, a 7th century monastic centre located on a craggy island just off the coast, but its early life was far more colourful. The town itself is named after Captain Theobald Magee, a notorious 18th-century smuggler who trafficked tea, tobacco, textiles, and liquor through a network of hidden coves into the region.
